how nice. all from the same person. if you need to manufacture posts that support your own post, then it's multiple personality disorder, not a conversation.

I would be completely elated if Obama and Biden were together on a ticket. I've been on the Biden wagon for a really long time now.

i like biden. i don't like biden with obama though. i also like richardson. if we're looking for the good of the country, not just the wetdreams of the particular parties, my dream team would be a dem vp and a rep pres. i'd love to see biden or even richardson be the diplomacy arm of the country while mccain handles the strategic end of the war. but that's in an alternative universe. too bad. maybe biden as secretary of state? whatever happens, i'd like to see a heavy hand with war in iraq followed by a very specific diplomacy effort (which i see as mccain's weakness), far above what rice is pretending to do now. leaving the balance of power to congress is like trying to get a bunch of 8 year olds to agree on what to have for lunch.

sorry for the hijack. i'll shut up now.

please don't pick Biden or Edwards
Bill Richardson or Mark Pryor would do more to balance the ticket. Biden has too much baggage not to mention too partisan.

I like Biden but I think he would be better suited for the Sec. of State position. Obama needs a running mate who appeals to the blue collar workers.

If looking for blue collar, how about Jim Webb? At least he talks like a regular guy (in my opinion this doesn't seem like what we should need to have a this point...another regular guy like Bush...but I see your point).

Love Jim Webb, and he has the military experience. Plus a southerner. Perfect.
